أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ حَاتِمِ بْنِ نُعَيْمٍ أَخْبَرَنَا حَبَّانُ أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ عَنْ شَرِيكٍ عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ عَنِ الْبَرَاءِ قَالَ

صَلَّيْتُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ نَحْوَ بَيْتِ الْمَقْدِسِ سِتَّةَ عَشَرَ شَهْرًا وَكَانَ نَبِيُّ اللهِ ﷺ يُحِبُّ أَنْ يُصَلِّيَ نَحْوَ الْكَعْبَةِ فَكَانَ يَرْفَعُ رَأْسَهُ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ فَأَنْزَلَ اللهُ ﷻ {قَدْ نَرَى تَقَلُّبَ وَجْهِكَ فِي السَّمَاءِ فَلَنُوَلِّيَنَّكَ قِبْلَةً تَرْضَاهَا فَوَلِّ وَجْهَكَ شَطْرَ الْمَسْجِدِ الْحَرَامِ} [البقرة 144] قَالَ الْبَرَاءُ وَالشَّطْرُ فِينَا قِبَلَهُ وَقَالَ فِي قَوْلِ اللهِ تَعَالَى {لِيُضِيعَ إِيمَانَكُمْ} [البقرة 143] قَالَ مَا كَانَ اللهُ لِيُضِيعَ صَلَاةَ مَنْ مَاتَ وَهُوَ يُصَلِّي نَحْوَ بَيْتِ الْمَقْدِسِ

✧ I prayed with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ toward Jerusalem for sixteen months, and the Prophet of Allah ﷺ loved to pray toward the Kaaba. He used to raise his head toward the sky, so Allah, mighty and sublime, sent down: {We have certainly seen the turning of your face toward the heaven, and We will surely turn you to a qiblah with which you will be pleased. So turn your face toward the Sacred Mosque} [al-Baqarah: 144]. Al-Bara said: The direction among us is toward it. And regarding Allah's saying: {So He would not let your faith be lost} [al-Baqarah: 143], he said: Allah would not let the prayer of one who died while praying toward Jerusalem be lost.
